It’s been a while since I posted a new recipe, so I’ll make this one a double whammy. In my experience if there is one thing people seem to love even more than cookies, it’s probably raw cookie dough. The only problem with raw cookie dough is those pesky bacteria-laden eggs. But now we have a rather obvious solution: egg free cookie dough. Another problem quickly arise though which is: how do you eat raw cookie dough without making a mess? Similarly to salsa, cookie dough needs some sort of vehicle to effectively make it to your mouth. That’s where the brownie comes in. Cookie-dough laden brownies. It’s Presidents Day and I don’t think you can get much more American than that.

Speaking of holidays, I couldn’t let Valentine’s Day weekend pass without making something pink and this Strawberry fudge seemed to fit the ticket pretty well. There’s something magical about chocolate and strawberries. I hope that your Valentine’s Day was filled with both.
